    Good Points: Really robust, very easy to use, stable.


    Bad Points: Foot pegs should really be fitted as standard


    General comments: We've got three of the Otters - bought to get us on the water whilst I built a wooden Canadian canoe. They have been great, very comfortable, easy to use and perfect for absolute novices and experienced paddlers alike. I would heartily recommend them to anyone who wants a simple, low-cost canoe to use on flat water or slow moving water.

I just love this kayak and would highly recommen ...

    I mostly use the Old Town Otter Kayak for open, non-flowing water but is also great for creek floating with quick water flow. Small rapids not a problem but you wouldn't want to use it on anything over class 2 or 3 rapids mostly because of length and lack of foot pegs. Can hold a lot of gear in nose and behind seat so it's perfect for camping. Great kayak for beginners and even moderately skilled kayakers who want to steer clear of large rapids.
